BOLTON & MENK Real People. Real So[utions. April 18, 2018 Mr. Mark Riverblood Parks & Assistant Public Works Superintendent City of Ramsey 7550 Sunwood Drive NW Ramsey, Minnesota 55303 RE: City of Ramsey COR Area Parks Analysis Scope of Services and Fee Estimate for Civil Engineering Dear Mr. Riverblood: 7533 Sunwood Drive NW Suite 206 Ramsey, MN 55303-5119 Ph: (7631433-2851 Fax: [7631427-0833 Bpiton-Menk.com The City is in the process of considering park related improvements for "Municipal Plaza" and "The Waterfront". We have prepared this proposal based on our understanding of those improvements, along with our general understanding of The COR. Our scope of services is also aligned with, and required to support, the December 5, 2017 Scope of Services prepared by Bruce Jacobson, Landscape Architect. SCOPE OF SERVICES Topographical Survey Our work would include performing a topographical survey on the subject properties. We will coordinate and augment our survey with information from the Affinity site, and also from other survey work performed in the area. Geotechnical Exploration Geotechnical exploration is proposed to be completed by using a series of borings to determine the material type on the site, and suitability of the material for use in building pads throughout The COR. We will coordinate with Northern Technologies (NTI) to perform the work. Five deep borings will be performed in the area of the regional pond, and 3 additional shallow borings will be performed on the east and west ends of the regional pond. This task is intended to add a level of certainty for the assumption that the soils can be used for structural foundations both on the site and in other areas of The COR. Preliminary Grading and Drainage Plan We will work with the City and the Landscape Architect, beginning at the schematic design phase of the process. Our work scope is anticipated to include the following: • Prepare a topographic background drawing using current/existing topographic data files. We will use aerial photography and topographical survey data to complete the base map. • Convert the conceptual site plan layout, per direction from Owner and Landscape Architect, into AutoCAD Civil 3D format. • Prepare preliminary design drawings for site improvements, including stormwater management. • Incorporate anticipated surface improvements, including erosion control and other project elements, into the preliminary drawings.
